Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos

Chapter 125: Chapter 91: King’s Treasure Chest, Advanced Golden Mechanic Guard, 9-Colored Osmanthus Tree

Among the Five Elements Spiritual Qi, Yi Tian found he could manipulate water and fire with ease.

It felt as if, with a single thought, he could condense a ball of flame.

And he could even change the shape of the flame using his mind.

Ice and water were the same!

Moreover, Yi Tian gained a special insight regarding ice and fire, able to fuse the two together.

This feeling was so mysterious, it could only be experienced, not explained.

”Congratulations, Lord! Your strength has leveled up to B-level. Mercenary System prompt: ’World number two’ has upgraded from C-level Mercenary to B-level Mercenary! Please update your B-level mercenary hiring price.” As Yi Tian’s spiritual power rose, the Celestial Dao Stone gave him a notification.

The three-dimensional attributes work as a whole and belong to Body Refining.

Spiritual power works as a whole and belongs to Qi Refining.

The rise in spiritual power is not just an increase in quantity, but a leap in quality.

If any one attribute in the three-dimensionals goes over 500, under the Celestial Dao Stone’s appraisal, that counts as ”quasi-B-level” strength, unlike the native tribes—where as long as any attribute reaches 500, you’re called a Golden Warrior.

Spiritual power just needs to surpass 500 to instantly become B-level.

The natives have specialized Detection Stones to check their exact three-dimensional stats.

If possible, Yi Tian should get himself a Detection Stone too, so the Dragon Sparrow Guards can check their own strength.

The Dragon Sparrow Guards always want to ask Yi Tian about their three-dimensionals, but they don’t dare!

Yi Tian’s current Spiritual Power Value: 542.

With the mercenary level increase, the difficulty of Yi Tian’s tasks increased too.

From now on, mid-level B and early-stage B tasks would be fine. For late-stage B missions, Yi Tian would have to consider carefully.

He can’t just keep relying on the Five Elements Divine Light to solve problems.

Right now, the pricing for mercenaries is pretty wild—the system minimum price for a B-level mercenary is 50,000 Celestial Dao Coins.

Yi Tian set it at 100,000 Celestial Dao Coins.

Because all the B-level mercenaries are priced at over 100,000 Celestial Dao Coins, and those with high win rates are priced above 200,000 Celestial Dao Coins.

Arrived!

Yi Tian had just finished setting the hiring price, then under Little Blue’s lead, came to a stone treasure chest.

Compared to the Little Kiddos, Yi Tian was full of spirit, feeling great.

”Open!”

Yi Tian opened this stone chest using the Celestial Dao Stone.

Boom!

The whole lid flew open with a bang.

No diamond glow at all.

”Screech screech!”

But with the chorus of screeches, Yi Tian backed away repeatedly.

The Kiddos instantly snapped to alertness.

Rodent-like creatures with wings, fur dark brown, looking especially disgusting.

Vampire Bats!

Yi Tian took one look and basically knew what they were called!

”Vampire Poison Bat: its venomous fangs can pierce B-level skin. Once poisoning occurs, you’ll become a vampire, fear the light, and crave blood to survive.”

After the Celestial Dao Stone gave its intro, Yi Tian checked the Vampire Poison Bats’ stats.

Really low; D-level strength, easy to kill.

But with enough ants, even an elephant falls—there were just too many Vampire Poison Bats.

It was as if the stone chest were a spatial magical treasure.

The Vampire Poison Bats kept pouring out, one after another.

”Retreat! Fourth Child covers the rear, everyone else just go!”

Yi Tian didn’t waste time fighting them, barked out the order.

Decisively left the scene!

With their speed, these Vampire Bats could hardly catch up.

Since they weren’t stealth magical beasts, even if you killed them, you’d get nothing in return.

”Screech screech!”

As the Howling Moon Silver Wolf carried Yi Tian away, the Vampire Poison Bats gathered in a huge cloud in the sky, dive-bombing toward Yi Tian.

Sitting behind Yi Tian, Fourth Child opened her tiny mouth and started spitting fire.

The pillar of flame shot sky-high—any bat hit by the fire would have its wings catch ablaze, falling from the night sky.

But there were way too many Vampire Poison Bats; Fourth Child kept burning but couldn’t wipe them all out.

In the sky, Fifth Child spat a torrent of water down, sending a shockwave that wiped out a huge swath of Vampire Poison Bats.

Yi Tian saw a few survivors swooping toward him.

He instantly condensed a fireball and hurled it at the Vampire Poison Bats.

Quite a few Vampire Poison Bats were burned to ashes.

Yi Tian found that his fireball needed almost three seconds to cast each time.

Then he tried creating a water blade and tossed it into the air.

Next came ice spikes!

Yi Tian had basically become a mage, not even needing to learn elemental or magic skills, just casting them on a whim.

The power of each elemental attack always matched Yi Tian’s spiritual power—no more, no less.

Yi Tian kept firing skills, shaping them into different forms.

Yi Tian discovered that when forming knives, swords, or arrows, the elemental attack packed a bit more punch.

Physics really does make sense!

Second Child, with powerful spiritual qi, also projected energy, shooting down the nearby Vampire Poison Bats.

Once the Howling Moon Silver Wolf widened the gap, they left the chasing bats in the dust. The Vampire Poison Bats couldn’t catch up anymore.

After that little ordeal, they went to look for the two stone chests Little Black had discovered.

First one, opened!

An empty chest.

Another hundred li or so, they found the second stone chest.

This stone chest was on a lakeside sandbar.

The mountain lake wasn’t big—just two or three square kilometers.

”Open!”

Yi Tian stood by the lake, scanning the chest.

Four Diamond Treasure Chests!

Doesn’t his Eighth-Level Territory get a King’s Treasure Chest?

This is not your usual Celestial Dao Fortune!

Yi Tian stared hopefully as the stone chest gradually opened...

When the chest cracked open, a ray of black gold light shot out from the gap.

Yi Tian’s heart surged with excitement; he’d seen this color before.

King’s Treasure Chest!

All that midnight searching wasn’t for nothing—Heaven Rewards Diligence!

This time, Celestial Dao Fortune felt totally different than usual.

Earlier, Yi Tian had checked the regional chat channel on the road. The Lords in the region said, even their worst chest was a Silver Treasure Chest.

Even with Territory Level only at three.

Normally, with regular Celestial Dao Fortune, Territory Level three would only give two Bronze Treasure Chests and one Silver Treasure Chest.
